Step 2Soak and Cook Tapioca
You will need to soak the tapioca in room temp water overnight, so plan a day ahead. Once you do this, you simmer the tapioca pearls for 15 minutes in lots of water. At least 5 times as much water as tapioca.
Your tapioca package will have basic instructions, but they are usually for pudding. You need more water.
Once your 15 minutes is up, it will be a slimy, gooey mess. Rinse in warm water, transferring from the strainer to the mixing bowl several times, until the slimy goo is gone and you are left with translucent spheres that are about 1/4 inch in diameter.
Put them in a container and into the refrigerator to cool down. They will keep for 3 or 4 days.
